Lady Winchilsea?

[edit]

Isn't she 'Lady Winchilsea', as quoted in Virginia Woolf's A Room of One's Own? Zigzig20s 01:44, 5 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Winchilsea/Winchelsea?

[edit]

Does her title refer to the Cinque Port currently spelled Winchelsea, as is strongly suggested by the Earl of Winchilsea and Nottingham article? I can't find any definitive reference to the alternative spelling of the town's name, other than the redirect here (Winchilsea). Uniquely, the EB1911 article uses the "e" spelling in her name; I just added a poster linking to that. It might be nice to have an explanation, either in the earldom article or the Winchelsea article. David Brooks (talk) 18:05, 25 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Editing Page to reflect recent Scholarly Edition

[edit]

Hello, I'm a scholar working on Finch and making edits to reflect the recent Cambridge Edition of Finch's works, along with a few other more recent, definitive pieces of scholarship. I'm new to this, so I welcome advice. Andytowne (talk) 20:15, 31 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
